As announced on Friday, Folarin Balogun signed on Wednesday with AS Monaco until 2028. Although the club has not communicated the amount, the transfer fee is estimated at around €30 million excluding bonuses.

A Ligue 1 revelation last season for Reims (21 goals in 37 appearances), the striker from Arsenal’s training center was not part of Mikel Arteta’s plans this season. On the Rock, he comes to fill an orphan offensive sector of Kevin Volland, who left for Union Berlin, and Breel Embolo, absent for several months following a knee injury.

Born in New York, Balogun recently chose to defend the colors of the United States and played his first matches with the American team last June during the CONCACAF Nations League. He scored his first international goal in the final against Canada (2-0 victory).
